Abstract

Disclosed are a method and a device for feeding and/or discharging fluids in microreactor arrays (1) through one or several fluid ducts (4) that extend into each individual microreactor (2) and can be individually controlled and regulated, in order to control, regulate, influence, and/or verify processes. The fed or discharged amounts of fluid are introduced into or discharged from the volume of the reaction liquid during a continuous shaking process and are evenly mixed as a result of the shaking process. The continuous shaking process causes sufficient mass transfer and thorough mixing of the reaction partners or fluids while the reaction is not limited or restricted by the mass transfer conditions.
